Italian Pavilion.Theme "The Nursery of Italy" by Nemesis & Partners Srl,

Focusing on humankind that, through life and work, has transformed the natural environment, Expo Milano 2015 aims to highlight the life-giving energy that food, the symbol of hospitality, community and celebration, brings to each and every one of us. People and their history are central themes of this Expo. From the very first Expo in London in 1851, it is possible to see the legacy each edition has left behind – not just the physical landmarks, but also the changes in people’s relationship with the land and with the food it provides. This has been the inspiration for Expo Milano 2015, Feeding the Planet, Energy for Life, which will explore the importance of nutrition for all of us and the central role that humans play.
